Electromagnetic Safety

Dear Colleagues,

Electromagnetic safety can be considered in two main areas. The first is electromagnetic safety from the point of view of human life and health. This is understood as the impact of electromagnetic fields on the human body. There are many normative documents that regulate the maximum values of electromagnetic field strengths so they do not  have a negative impact on humans. Information security is the second area of electromagnetic safety. In this case, electromagnetic fields may affect the correct functioning of electronic devices. Too high values in electromagnetic fields can disturb the operation of an electronic device or, in extreme cases, can lead to its destruction. Another but very important issue in this area is the consideration of an electronic device as a source of electromagnetic emissions that may determine the loss of processed data. This case regards the possibility of correlating the characteristics of the electromagnetic field with the characteristics of the processed information. Each of the types of electromagnetic safety described above are related to protecting the electromagnetic environment in which a person lives.

Electromagnetic safety can therefore be considered in terms of:

• Human safety;
• Equipment safety;
• Information security.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Safety is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
